Radiation - A Disadvantage Of Solar EnergyThat big solar rooftop installation looks great. Are there disadvantages of solar energy? Thinking about the solar negatives after you’ve installed the solar panel array, inverter, batteries, etc is post-purchase regret. That is what some people might call buyer’s remorse. You think; “Why didn’t that photovoltaic disadvantage occur to me while I was doing the feasibility analysis?”You’re looking at red sunburnt skin after a day in the sun and asking yourself why sunscreen wasn’tContinue Reading

Solar panel kits were a logical step when I thought about rooftop solar. What if solar power kits consisting PV panels, controller, inverter, switches, generator and bat​​​​​teries were available delivered to your home? Wouldn’t that provide an alternative source of photovoltaic electrical power?You could install the solar kit to operate your home’s electrical appliances when your utility grid’s power prices fail to impress. Solar PV power kit, generator and a bank of batteries would supply cheap stable power for yourContinue Reading

What’s A Power Generator?A power generator provides an independent source of electrical power to operate your electrical systems when normal power supplies fail. Standby power may come from a motorised electricity generator, an uninterruptible battery power supply or from solar battery equipment.The period of the outage can vary depending on the cause of the failure. Mains grid power can fail when power lines are damaged in vehicle accidents or from bushfires. Power lines may collapse during inclement weather. A substationContinue Reading

Renewable Source Of Solar EnergyHow to get free solar power? Renewable solar energy technologies use the energy of light from the sun. The sun provides heat and light every day while it shines on your location. We use that free solar energy to make water hot and produce electricity. This article explains how to get free solar power from daylight.You might argue that in the course of extracting that energy we need a process, method, system or technology. The solarContinue Reading

Renewable energy sources provide the cleanest sources of energy. They don't induce pollutants into the environment. Compared with renewable energy technologies the conventional fossil fuel energy technologies aren't clean.​ The Sun’s light and energy are the prime sources of renewable energy. We can feel the power source of the Sun’s radiation. Its radiant heat and light energy are renewable energy sources. Many people associate renewable energy sources with solar photovoltaic (PV) electricity generation.​​There are other renewable energy sources. I will coverContinue Reading
